Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and creamy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.

Step 4

Add the honey, vanilla extract, and egg to the butter mixture. Mix well until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped nuts using a spatula or wooden spoon, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking for softer cookies.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
